Cedar Plank Mounted Staghorn Fern

Cedar Plank Mounted Staghorn Fern is a stunning living work of art that brings the beauty of the rainforest into your home. Naturally growing as an epiphyte in tropical forests, Staghorn Ferns attach themselves to trees rather than growing in soil. Mounted on a handcrafted cedar plank with a durable leather hanging strap, this display showcases the plant just as nature intended. Its dramatic antler-like fertile fronds and rounded shield fronds create an eye-catching sculptural display that becomes even more impressive as the plant matures. Unique, pet-friendly, and easy to care for, this living wall piece adds a bold tropical statement to homes, patios, offices, and indoor plant collections.

Key Features:

• Mounted on natural cedar – beautifully displayed on a handcrafted cedar plank that highlights the plant's natural epiphytic growth habit.
• Genuine leather hanging strap – ready to display right out of the box with a durable leather hanger.
• Unique antler-like foliage – produces dramatic branching fronds that become larger and more sculptural over time.
• Living wall art – a one-of-a-kind decorative piece that combines nature with modern home décor.

Care Guide:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight. Gentle morning sun is beneficial, but avoid prolonged harsh afternoon sun, which can scorch the fronds.
• Water: Remove the mount from the wall and thoroughly soak the moss and root ball for 10–20 minutes when it begins to dry. Allow excess water to drain completely before rehanging. Watering frequency will vary depending on temperature and humidity.
• Humidity: Enjoys moderate to high humidity and thrives in humid environments. Occasional misting between waterings can be beneficial, especially in dry homes.
• Fertilizer: Feed lightly with a diluted balanced liquid fertilizer or orchid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter.
• Temperature: Thrives in warm indoor conditions around 60–85°F (16–29°C); protect from frost and temperatures below 50°F.
• Mounting: Keep mounted vertically in a location with good air circulation. The shield fronds will naturally attach themselves to the mounting surface over time.

Growth & Size:

Moderate-growing; the fertile fronds can eventually reach 2–3 feet or more in length under ideal conditions, while the shield fronds gradually expand to cover the mounting surface. As the fern matures, it develops into an increasingly dramatic living sculpture that can be enjoyed for many years.

Safety Note:

Cedar Plank Mounted Staghorn Fern is considered non-toxic to pets and humans, making it an excellent choice for households with cats, dogs, and children. While the plant is generally regarded as safe, it is still best to discourage chewing on the fronds to prevent unnecessary digestive upset and preserve its beautiful appearance.
